Canadians Need a Green New Deal

The climate crisis is an existential threat to our way of life. Wildfires, flooding, and extreme weather will become more common and more deadly if we fail to take action now. Our cities and towns will be destroyed, and many people will die. This a real and significant challenge.

But Canada has overcome great challenges before. In the 20th century we were confronted by fascist tyranny and we mobilized our nation to contribute to its defeat in World War Two.

Now we need similar decisive action to bring our resources and ingenuity to bear against climate change.

We need a Green New Deal to mobilize our national, industrial, and economic resources to move Canada’s economy to 100% clean, renewable energy within the next 10 years, creating millions of good jobs in the process.

There is much work to be done building a clean energy system, modernizing our electrical grid, retrofitting buildings, retooling transportation networks, and large-scale public works to move our economy into the 21st century.

A Green New Deal will bring Canadians together, working towards a common goal of creating a modern, clean, and prosperous economy.

As a first step, we are calling on all politicians to support the development of a plan to implement a Green New Deal that will create millions of jobs and move Canada to 100% clean and renewable energy by 2030.

The Green New Deal is an investment in millions of good jobs and a bright future for everyone.

The real cost will come if we do nothing to avoid catastrophic climate change. Conservative estimates project that climate change will cost Canadian families almost $2,500 per year within just a few decades.

We are calling for the development of a plan to implement a Green New Deal that will create millions of good jobs and move our economy to 100% clean energy by 2030. The plan that emerges from this process will determine how much investment is required to get the job done.

Many organizations are calling for a Green New Deal for Canada. Our Time is organizing young people to demand a Green New Deal. In Quebec, Le Pacte Pour Transition is supporting a Green New Deal-style plan.
